    Abstract: The display device (10) comprises an array of rows and columns of pixels. The display device further comprises a plurality of commonly controlled first electrodes (FE) for supplying a common signal (DS1) to each pixel (13), a plurality of commonly controlled second electrodes (SE) for supplying a further common signal (DS2) to each pixel, and a plurality of pixel addressing electrodes (AC1, AC2, AC3, AC4) for addressing the individual pixels. At least the plurality of first electrodes and the plurality of second electrodes are routed parallel to one another, such that crossovers between the commonly controlled electrodes are eliminated.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to the removal of ion contaminations from liquid crystal layers in liquid crystal display devices. The ions are removed by means of so called ion pumping, which utilizes the anisotropic viscosity of liquid crystals. The ions are pumped up and down in the liquid crystal layer by means of an alternating electric filed. The alternating electric field simultaneously alters the alignment of directors in the liquid crystal. The viscosity in the liquid crystal is related to the director directions, and the ions are thereby moved in non-closed trajectories. The inventive ion pumping can be further improved using an asymmetric or biased alternating electric field.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to the removal of ion (42, 44, 902) contaminations from liquid crystal layers (901) in liquid crystal display devices (900). The ions (42, 44, 902) are removed by means of so called ion pumping, which utilizes the anisotropic viscosity of liquid crystals. The ions (42, 44, 902) are pumped up and down in the liquid crystal layer by means of an alternating electric filed. The alternating electric field simultaneously alters the alignment of directors (41) in the liquid crystal. The viscosity in the liquid crystal is related to the director directions, and the ions (42, 44, 902) are thereby moved in non-closed trajectories (43, 45). The inventive ion pumping can be further improved using an asymmetric or biased alternating electric field.
